Unable To Spot ';' Error In 4 Lines

[yshua]

Dear Code Talking People:

 

Following code:

 

<?php
 $mysql = mysql_real_connect('localhost', 'root', '***********', '*******');
 if (!$mysql {
   die('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error());
 }

?>

 

gets this emsg:

 

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ';' in C:\Program Files (x86)\Apache Software Foundation\

Apache2.2\htdocs\includes\db.php on line 4

 

Probably obvious, but oblivious,

Missing a closing parenthesis after !$mysql.

Also, you should take better care to avoid posting usernames and passwords on the internet. Even if they're just for a local server.

And especially so if they were for a live server.

As Pikachu2000 said, parenthesis missing... Use the code below.

 

<?php
$mysql = mysql_real_connect('localhost', 'root', '***********', '*******');
if (!$mysql) {
die('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error());
}

?>
